Events Happening Throughout the Month

Perched on top of a high crag on Northumberland’s Holy Island, Lindisfarne Castle re-opens this year, following 18 months of essential repairs and conservation work, with a major new site-specific installation by internationally acclaimed, former Turner-prize nominated artist, Anya Gallaccio.

In 1968, the National Trust opened Wallington to visitors for the first time and 50 years later the Trust is marking this anniversary with ‘Time Tests Faith’, a programme of installations and activities inspired by the motto of the unconventional Trevelyan family – ‘Tyme Tryeth Troth’.

'Summer at Woodhorn - Pitmen Painters: Resurfacing' invites you to discover and celebrate The Ashington Group, a group of artists whose story is rooted in Northumberland’s industrial, cultural & artistic heritage.

The landscape around Kielder Water & Forest Park has inspired the creation of an award-winning collection of art and architecture, visitors can join an experienced art curator on a minibus tour to explore the Park's most well-known artworks.
